Most businesses operate out of one checking account.
That means every dollar, rent, payroll, software, taxes, you name it, flows through a single place.
That makes it hard to:
See what’s been set aside
Plan for what’s coming
Automate anything with confidence
The obvious solution?
You could head to your bank and open multiple checking accounts:
One for operating expenses. One for payroll. One for taxes.
But in practice, that’s:
Time consuming
Hard to maintain
Not really how banks are designed to work
That’s where Sequence comes in
Sequence gives you the ability to create dedicated checking accounts, instantly, and as many as you need, all inside one platform.
Here’s how it works:
We partner with Thread Bank, a fully regulated & FDIC insured bank
You can open new checking accounts (we call them Pods) in seconds
Each Pod can hold money, spend money, and move money, just like any real account, because it is
What can you do with a Pod?
Each Pod is:
A real FDIC-insured checking account
Able to hold its own balance
Capable of issuing debit cards (yes, multiple!)
Programmable with Rules to automate how money moves
Want to make a Pod just for Marketing Spend?
Or to hold reserves for Q4 bonuses?
Or to route income to specific teams?
You can do all of that, and more, right from within Sequence.
Why Pods are better than bank accounts
Pods are built for dynamic business logic.
They’re not just places to stash money, they’re money containers with behavior.
That means:
You don’t need to move money manually
You can give Pods instructions (via Rules)
You can stay organized without logging into multiple bank portals
Quick recap: Pods are…
Real checking accounts, created inside your Sequence workspace
Instantly openable, with no paperwork or branch visits
Programmable, so money knows where to go and what to do
Spendable, with debit cards for any Pod you choose
Scalable, make as many as you need

Now that you know what Pods are and why they matter,
let’s show you how to make one, and how to make it work for you.
